Re: 2013 Lineup Confirmation/Rumors Thread

Did people forget that both Frank Ocean and Kendrick Lamar played last year? Despite Kendrick putting out a great album and every female wanting their shot at trying to convince Frank Ocean he is straight, I don't see either of them back on the lineup again this year.

They've both gotten much more mainstream recognition and critical acclaim since April so it's entirely possible one or both of them come back. They'd make a lot more since than the Vaccines or whatever.

Why wouldn't they be? Coachella tends to have a few repeats and considering how much more popular each of them have become over the past eight months, it wouldn't surprise me at all to see them back.

The show was so boring I was more entertained by watching Thom's young son enjoy the show from the side stage and noted he was a magazine version of an adorable red headed english child.

I definitely tried to give AFP a chance and with the addition of the clusterfucked overcrowding and a performance that only fanatics would be REALLY into, I felt the regret of not seeing other things on Sunday. As I have every year, avoid the acts that present a possible "surprise" aka THOM YORKE????

Fucking Radiohead.

The weight I give this opinion entirely depends on your opinion of Radiohead.

I like Radiohead, the Tri-Force of theirs is amazing and one of my favorites for long drives at night (Ok Computer/Kid A/Amnesiac) but, I feel the fanaticism with their fanbase sometimes just ruins them and overhypes other projects of theirs.

It's like the whole "Daisy service" with Reznor and Dre - its fucking Pandora with celebrities who we feel comfortable with giving our money to, not this intellectual bullshit we believe we are buying into. That's how I feel about AFP.

I realize this is just pure speculation, but does anyone think Alexisonfire could be possible? They're currently doing their farewell tour through Canada, as Dallas is going to focus solely on City and Colour (who played a few years ago). They have not announced any dates past the end of December, but maybe they could do one farewell show at Coachella? If someone knows for sure that that's the end of their touring then feel free to correct me. I was listening to spotify and saw "Death Letter" as new music from them which is what sparked my interest.
